Pistons' Rodney Stuckey has no answers for slump that got him benched against Mavericks

Detroit Free Press | Mar 10

It was a new low in a season of lows for Rodney Stuckey. But he still sat at his locker Friday night after the Pistons' latest loss and quietly tried to answer questions no one can answer right now.

Stuckey's lackluster play earned him a first-half benching by assistant coach Brian Hill, which extended Stuckey's streak to three games without a field goal. It has been nine days since Stuckey last made a basket from the field, when he scored six points on 3-for-7 shooting March 1 at New Orleans.

"I probably wasn't being aggressive," Stuckey said softly about his benching. "We did a good job of picking up the slack in the second half. We came in with some good energy defensively. We came down there knocking down shots as well, so we almost had a chance to win the game."
